  Click on the folder and change your permissions for it and all subfolders and files all rights and if necessary take hand the case (and maybe the parent folder or even its parent - and all of the subfolders and files) until you have the permission you need.  Here are the general procedures to help you:

  To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

  To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

• The effects of top 3 (flame, frame photo and tree) are grayed out in photoshop CC2015. How can I activate them?  Thank you!

  The effects of top 3 (flame, frame photo and tree) are grayed out in photoshop CC2015. How can I activate them?

  Well, I have a full card on my Mac, I do not have access to the 3D features, so I mounted make flame, frame and tree on my Windows 7 Dell.

  First created a new empty file, then 3D > new mesh layer > 3D postcard workspace if requested.

  Then I went to the filter > make > Frame and try the command again. Frame, fire and trees is active and is more gray.

  Then on the Dell, I went into Photoshop preferences > sync and transferred all settings.  (you can install Photoshop on both machines)

  On my Mac, I went into Preferences > settings sync and uploaded everything and rendering filters have been activated on the Mac and they work well.

  The point is that you should be able to activate the filters of rendering on your Mac. Otherwise install Photoshop CC 2015 2015 on a second computer, activate the filters it and sync the two as explained above.

  

• My photos and videos are not in chronological order, when I export the Photos app

  Hello. When I export my photos and videos from the Photos app on my iMac all the photos and videos are not in order. I need all the photos in good standing - I need to export about 5 000 pictures of the application in order for a meeting next week! Help, please!

  Ethan.

  This is not photo - it is a function of the viewing program (probably the finder) - once the photos are exprted form pictures you can see then in different ways which you control, Photos does not - by the finder you can view by name of son, byt several dates, by file size, etc.

  Usually, the best way to accomplish what you want is to export using the names of batch file numbeing and then sort by file name in the program viewing

• What happens when the photo of system library is on an external drive and then the system creates a library of Photos? How do merge you them?

  What happens when the photo of system library is on an external drive and then the system creates a library of Photos? How do merge you them?

  Your library system can be on an external drive, if the drive is Mac OS extended (journaled) format and mounted on-site.

  But you must be careful, your external drive is always connected and available before the Photos and to import new photos.

  If Photos opens a different library, news, you can switch to the library on your external drive by double clicking on an external library. You can have several libraries, no problem.

  But pictures don't have any tools to merge libraries. You can switch between libraries, then open them alternately.  To merge two libraries export the photos of the smallest library and import the photos exported in the largest library.

  Or use third-party "PowerPhotos" to move photos between libraries.  But the merger is not supported in the free trial version. You must purchase the full version. You can download it here: Fat Cat Software

• Why my notes on my iPhone and iPad are no longer synchronized on my Mac

• My photos and video are not supported due to safe mode (I think)

  I went in safe mode to move around 3 000 files, photos and videos of user account 1 and account 2 to 2 office in a folder called 'FILES2KEEP '. When I rebooted my computer to check on the photos, I could not see most of the miniatures, and even with some still visible, when I tried to open windows photo gallery said, "Photo Gallery can't open this photo or video. This file format is not supported, or you do not have the latest updates to the photo gallery. "For the videos, I received the error message 2048 after them playing with QuickTime player. These files were not deleted somehow, just moved from one region to another in safe mode. The sizes of these photos and videos are normal and their respective sizes. I decided to place these files in normal mode and then restarted my computer, however, nothing has worked. I sill have the folder "FILES2KEEP" on desktop 2, but without the files user account. This could be the cause this and what are the several ways to address this issue?

  (Note: I'm running on Windows Vista Edition complete with Service Pack 2)

  Safe mode was probably not the cause, but the files are permanently damaged and need to be restored from your most recent backup.  The files may have been damaged during the move, but which is unlikely because move files only changes their display location, the tracks on the disc do not actually move.

  You could try checking the errors on your drives, the 'answer' to this page explains how: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-system/chkdsk-utility/4f46929e-db2d-43e0-88c4-a3a5c49bb2da

  Hi Pete Wiz.

  Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

  Method 1: This problem occurs if the current user profile has been accidentally deleted from the system.

  Note: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information on how to back up and restore the registry

  a. log in the system by using an administrative user account other than the user account that is experiencing the problem.

  b. back up the data in the folder of the current user profile if the profile folder still exists and then delete the profile folder. By default, the profile is located in the following location:

  %SystemDrive%\Users\UserName

  c. click Start, type regedit in the search box and press ENTER.

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

  d. Locate the following registry subkey:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

  e. under the ProfileList subkey, delete the subkey named SID.bak.

  Note: SID is a placeholder for the security identifier (SID) of the user account that is experiencing the problem. The SID.bak subkey must contain a ProfileImagePath registry entry that points to the folder of the original profile of the user account that is experiencing the problem.

  f. exit the registry editor.

  g. log off the system.

  h. Journal to log on to the system again.

  Here is an article:

  A temporary profile is loaded after you connect to a Windows Vista-based system

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947242/en-us

  Note: The article also applies to Windows 7.

  Method 2: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

   

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

  Let us know if that helps.

• Why the files are stored on an external drive not appearing in the "other" classification on my iMac HD?

  I'm running OS X version 10.11.4 on an iMac, retina 5 K 27-inch/3.5 GHz Intel Core i5 with 24 GB RAM/1 TB HDD and I have had for about a year, although I migrate some files over my old machine, but most were on an external.  I have almost all my larger files on an external drive 2 TB - for the most part hi res .eps, .jpeg, .png.

  I run CleanMyMac 3 as a utility. When I saw recently that I had more than 600 GB of 'others' I decided I have to spend the day to clean my files and machine - and have therefore been sucked into this rabbit hole.

  After cleaning duplicate files, empty the caches, removing unused applications and clean the external hard drive, I have still 570 GB of "other".  When you click on the bar in their own my Mac, it gives you a list of what is included in each of the classifications of file storage.  I understand, including all Documents to plain text, PDF and even files .docx, ect...

  what I don't understand is why:

  1 .pages (documents created in the clean Apple program) are not classified with documents, rather than as 'other '.

  2. why each of my .eps files that are stored on an external drive also claim space on my Mac?  It would potentially be the preview images displayed in the Finder? And if so, why it store a snapshot of the same size as the actual file?

  AND, most importantly, I can recover some of the disk space consumed by the huge amount of .eps files?

  Thank you

  'CleanMyMac' is a scam and a frequent cause of instability and poor performance. Depending on which version you have, the developer's instructions may not completely uninstall. Please follow these instructions, then do as below.

  Back up all data before proceeding.

  Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select this option:

  /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac3.Agent.plist

  Right-click or Ctrl-click on the highlighted line and select

  Services ▹ reveal in Finder (or just to reveal)

  the contextual menu.*, a file can open with a selected item. If so, move the selected item to the trash. You may be prompted for administrator login password.

  Repeat with this line:

  /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac3.Agent

  Restart the computer and empty the trash.

  You may also delete one or more of these elements in the same way:

  ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac.helperTool.plist

  ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac.volumeWatcher.plist

  ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac3.Scheduler.plist

  Never install "CleanMyMac" or something like that.

  * If you do not see the item context menu copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. In the Finder, select

  Go ▹ go to the folder...

  from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

  B

  For the other category in the display of information storage, see this support article. If the display appears to be inaccurate, try to rebuild the Spotlight index.

  Empty the trash if you don't have it already done. If you use iPhoto, emptying his trash internal everything first:

  ▹ iPhoto empty the trash

  In pictures:

  ▹ Show of the recently deleted ▹ file delete all

  Do the same thing in other applications like Aperture, with an internal feature of the trash. Then, restart the computer. Temporarily, which will free up space.

  According to the documentation from Apple, you need at least 9 GB of free space on the boot volume (as shown in the Infolog) for normal operation, not the mythical 10%, 15% or any percentage. You also need enough space to allow the growth of the data over. There is little or no advantage in terms of performance to get more free space than the minimum Apple recommends. Storage space you'll never use is wasted space.

  See this support article for some easy ways to free up storage space. A common waste of space is old backups iTunes to mobile devices. As shown in this support article, select the devices tab in the iTunes preferences window, select the backup that you want to remove and click on delete the backups. Keep at least a backup of each device you use yet.

  You can use a tool such OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore the volume and discover what is take up space. You can also delete files with it, but not unless you don't know you know what you remove and that all data is stored safely. This means that you have several backups, not one. Note that CESO works with OS X 10.8 or later.

  Deletion of files inside a photo library or iTunes will damage the library. Such a library should be changed within the application that created it. It is the same for e-mail files.

  Go further than if the problem is not resolved by the steps above.

  ODS cannot see the whole file system when you run simply by double-clicking; He sees only the files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you must run it as root.

  Back up all the data now.

  Install the application in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it runs.

  Triple-click any where in the text line below on this page to select, then copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination.

  security execute-with-privileges /A*/OmniDiskSweeper.app/*/M*/* 2>&-

  Launch the Terminal application integrated in one of the following ways:

  ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

  ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

  ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

  Paste in the Terminal window by pressing command + V. You will be asked for your login password.

  The application window opens behind other open windows. When you scan a volume, the window will finally show all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.

  I do not recommend that you make a habit of doing. Do not delete anything as root. If something should be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then remove by safer alternatives. If in doubt, leave it alone or ask for advice.

  When you are finished with the app, he quit and also to leave Terminal.

• How to move pictures and the catalogue of a new external drive on a Mac?

  I found this question several times and do not understand the answers.  I have all my photos and the catalog LR on an external HD.  I need to move to an external drive more.  I tried with the Finder, but when I try to open the catalog on the new disk the pictures do not show in LR even if they are on the disc.  In a few simple steps how to do this correctly?

  Assuming that the new disk is writable,

  Open the catalog.

  Go to the folders Panel.

  Do a "find missing" on the top-level folders so that LR will know where the files have been moved to.
